I believe that Meatball Machine was made for the sole purpose of grossing the hell out of people!! And if that's the case, it did a REALLY DAMN GOOD JOB!!! It forever will hold the place in my movie collection as the bloodiest, most disgusting, most disturbing, most downright chilling horror movie I've ever seen!!

There was the one scene where the girl gets her eyes drilled, and I almost lost it. I almost popped the DVD out of the player and ran away! It was so gross and disturbing!! It haunts me!!

Meatball Machine is more disturbing the Saw movies.
Meatball Machine is bloodier than Dead Alive, and YES, it is possible.
Meatball Machine is funnier than Knocked Up.
Meatball Machine is scarier than The Sixth Sense.
Meatball Machine is more of a must buy than any DVD/DVD Box Set you'll ever want in your life.

It's a must-buy movie, because it will make you disturbed. It is vomit-enducing, but so entertaining at the same time. It is very much a must-buy horror movie, because it is one big bloody cake of genres that you will love.

Everything "Tetsuo" Should Have Been. November 2, 2007
9 out of 11 found this review helpful

"Meatball Machine"
A great silly title, for a great silly movie,
It's essentially a cross between "Tesuo: the Iron" and a Gwar video with an Evil Dead vibe going on.
Fetus-Aliens in their bizarre tentacle-ships attach themselves to people's chests and orifices,
and transform them into mechanical killing machines (called necroborgs)
hell-bent on eating each other,
which they need to do in order to live.
Sound wacky enough?
Well it is, but it's still very enjoyable.
Suprisingly, there's a love story here too.
But don't worry that doesn't detract from all the off-the-wall silliness.

Here's a few reasons you might want to catch this flick:
- Lots of great blood & gore, (eye-drilling, head-splitting, etc.)
- A whole bunch of wild battles,
- Bizarre transformations involving whipping red hoses and internal mayhem,
- Psychotic costumes
- Disgusting/gorgeous aliens
- All the campy laughs and blood you could possibly want.

MORAL OF THE STORY:
The only thing better than a man-made machine,
is a machine made out of man.

If you like Bad Horror Movies because there funny and the director is obviously out of his mind, get this! It's like Dead Alive but 50x better. It's gory as all hell and is a great watch!

rubber suit machine July 13, 2008

This movie has a great looking box. This movie has a great title. There are assuredly 20 bar bands at this moment, performing Monday and Thursday nights throughout this great land, now proudly brandishing "Meatball machine" on their fliers passed out in the local community college cafeteria. Terrific bizarre plot that is most assuredly ambitious and I was pulling for this one. Admittedly I'm kinda on the fence with the camp elements in Japanese "cyberpunk" genre. However CITIZEN CANE was not expected. I'm writing this review because it might be helpful for some of us/you B movie fans that are drooling at the dvd box picture and really want to hit that "one click buy" so they can sleep tonight. I know this movie is appealing just being displayed on the shelf or put on your collection list. But some of you should know The MOST IMPORTANT PIECE OF INFORMATION before you left click that mouse... hold on... If your a; "I just can't stand rubber suits kinda guy or gal". And you know who you are, then this movie will become tedious fast. I couldn't finish M.M. glad I saw it, but wish I hadn't bought it. Gave it away to a friend who probably didn't even notice the afore mentioned offense. It deserves a decent home where someone can love and nourish it.

Japanese sci-fi with gore and a story June 15, 2007
2 out of 3 found this review helpful

Director Jun'ichi Yamamoto makes an interesting film on the take with aliens and humans battling each other. Here we have a couple of aliens that battle with each other. Then the aliens also have hosts that attached themselves to humans and morph them into warriors.

There is a side story about a nerd, Muraishi, who is in love with a girl named Misawa. The two share a lot of things in common including the fact that they are both lonely and shy. Muraishi finds a dead alien creature (or so he thinks back to his place). By chance he meets Misawa on a date with a jerk. The two go back to his place and tell their feelings toward one another much to his surprise. However, Muraishi has made the mistake of still keeping the creature at his place. The alien hosts becomes alive and attaches himself into Misawa and makes her vicious alien like ther rest of his race.

The special effects for this flick are very well done and the creature effects too. There is a long scene of where we see the alien host invading themselves to the human's body in graphic fashion. It's graphic, realistic and very bizaree. There are other surprises into how the hosts operate but I'am not going to spoil it.

If you want a decent alien sci-fi movie and you are sick of the low budget badly directed and acting Hollywood stuff you definitely will want to give "Meatball Machine" a try.

This movie was definitel unlike anything I've ever seen and it has everything that a lot of sci-fi and horror fans will like. The acting was decent too. If you're into an entertaining sci-film with lots of gore you'll love this movie.

Lots of action and gore so be prepared this movie very much uses the in your face type of camera action that makes this Japanese flicks really noticable.
